For all the DIY Brides out there

Wow, the brooch bouquet is gorgeous, and the garter looks amazing too. Can you please post this lace and pearl template that you speak of? We are doing lace and pearls for our DIY wedding.

Pretty bouquet!

@ Barbara, I will post the template tomorrow. I can the info at work. Here is a picture of my invite so you can get an idea of what it looks like. There is also an RSVP and Reception Card.

Catalina. No need to post the template. I have my invites already. However if you have any beautiful templates for wedding programs I would love to see them.

Wow!! what do you mean you're not creative and talented?!?! they look gorgeous!!!!

That bouquet is beautiful youve just inspired me. I also would love the lace template you speak of! that invitation is beautiful! i think our colors are pretty similar.

Hey Ladies, I can't find the link, but I have the template in the word document. I can email it to whoever wants it. If you would like me to send it to you email me at catwoman_VL at yahoo. The lace print is it gold. I had my friend convert the color to a blush to fit my colors

@ Minji, Thanks! I'm new to arts and craft projects so I am learning as I go. Happy with the way it is coming out.

Beautiful! I want to try and make mine. How should I get started?

You are super talented!!

Looks gorgeous. You did a great job.

DId you use silk flowers or did you make the flowers? I've been meaning to get started on my brooch bouquet but the thought of making a ton of satin flowers by hand is kinda scaring me.

EDIT: by the way your bouquet is gorgeous!!

Your bouquet is georgous! I wold love to know how you made it!! I'm not creative so any help i can get will help a lot!

I love your bouquet! your garter looks great too .. and the invites. You go girl!

Nice bouquet. I feel like I need to redo mine!

@ Future Mrs. R, start by purchasing brooches. Besides brooches I bought ring, earrings anything that would work. Look at swapmeets, thrift stores and online. Not sure if you can tell but my bouquet is pretty large and I bought like 40 pieces. I have about half in the bouquet right now.

@ Soon to be Mr. K I used silk flowers. I tried making the ribbon roses, but since I'm new to it, it was kind of difficult. Once I started to be the hang of it I lost interest because it was time consuming and used a lot of ribbon. I like the way the silk flowers look. If you want to use the ribbon roses you can buy them online and they aren't expensive.

@ Nicole, If I can do it anybody can seriously do it. Start collecting brooches, earring and ring. Buy/make your flowers
